Sales Volume? You are possibly looking at what could become BMW's best or one of their best selling models , this concept for BMW is the most demanded in europe , a BMW for large family units.
BMW can now increase MINI profits due to the platform, technology, drivetrain sharing with MINI which will see BMW's profit margin increase by a considerable margin.

Direct rival for the Mercedes-Benz B-Klasse which is enjoying huge success in Europe at the current time.
Audi now scared at the prospect of this growing market for premium space vehicles and are developing an A3 vario based on the VW Touran .
FAIL. Its not the size that people have a problem with, its the FWD part.
